Background:

After a period spent in Naples and Foggia, Joseph Beuys arrived in  Bolognano (Pescara) in 1972, invited by the spouses Lucrezia De Domizio and Buby Durini. Since then, he has kept visiting them again many times in the following years.

In Bolognano, he carried out a series of artistic activities, including the Foundation of the Institute for the Rebirth of Agriculture (1976), the creation of the Paradise Plantation with the planting of 7000 plants for the restoration of biodiversity (1982), and the work Olivestone (1984). In 1984, he became an honorary citizen of Bolognano.
